Cold Case Christianity

Forensic Faith for Kids by J. Warner and Susie Wallace

Are Your Kids Ready to Share the Truth?
In Forensic Faith for Kids, real-life Cold-Case Detective J. Warner Wallace shows kids ages 8-12 how to develop a reasonable faith and share it with their friends as they try to solve a mystery involving a Welsh Pembroke corgi named Bailey. Readers will learn how to develop a “forensic faith” and learn how to share it with others.

J. Warner and Susie Wallace have been training young people in the church setting for over a decade. J. Warner is a cold-case homicide detective who has been featured on Dateline, FOX News, TruTV and other crime related television shows. A former atheist, he is the author of Cold-Case ChristianityGod’s Crime Sceneand Forensic Faith. J. Warner has a master’s degree in theological studies, and Susie has a master’s degree in speech pathology.

Forensic Faith for Kids includes author illustrations, and is supported by an interactive website that allows kids to download chapter activities and “case note” fill-in sheets. When these are successfully completed and assembled in an “Academy Notebook,” readers will be qualified to earn a Forensic Investigations “Certificate of Merit.” Plus, Forensic Faith for Kids follows the same chapter sequence as Wallace’s adult book, Forensic Faith, so parents and children can discuss and explore the evidence together, chapter by chapter.

Forensic Faith for Kids will help readers learn how to share the truth of Christianity as they become good detectives, critical thinkers and excellent communicators. Purchase it TODAY!

Here’s what others are saying about Forensic Faith for Kids :

“An intriguing and compelling mystery that will capture the imagination of teens, and while delivering a much-needed message for youth and their parents today:  You need to know what and why you believe in Jesus Christ.  This novel will give parents some fresh opportunities to discuss matters of faith and convictions with their tweens and teens.”

Dennis and Barbara Rainey – Host of FamilyLife Today and Co-founders of FamilyLife

“Detective Jim Wallace and his wife Susie have done it again— a story that is both important and fun!  In trying to find the true owner of an adorable missing puppy, a group of young detectives discover truths about Jesus that will impact them (and you) forever.  If you’re a young person, you won’t be able to put this one down.”

Frank and Stephanie Turek – Christian Apologist and Founders of CrossExamined.org

“As parents and, perhaps, even grandparents, there is little more important in this life than helping to ‘shore up the faith’ of our loved ones. Forensic Faith for Kids makes this task both easy, as well as, enjoyable. The book is not only very ‘readable,’ and entertaining for all generations but, most importantly, it is filled, from cover to cover, with apologetic truth.  Whether an older saint or someone new to the faith, this book will prove itself invaluable.”

Jeff and Dawn Siemon – Pro-Bowl Minnesota Vikings football player and co-laborers at Search Ministries

“J. Warner and Susie Wallace have brilliantly woven together a delightful mystery about a lost puppy with an every-day situation where the claims of Christ are challenged by a peer and shown how investigative techniques are critical in both of these dilemmas.  Forensic Faith is chock full of tools to equip and encourage readers to be calm, confident investigators and communicators of our faith in Christ, and to trust that often the answers are hidden right in front of us…we just need to dig a little.  A priceless book for kids of all ages!”
